Ten utwór fajnie by zabrzmiał w plenerze, najlepiej w jakimś parku ze stawem...

A Leopold Mozart original manuscript confirmed this his work, not Haydn. But for years it was debated Haydn might have written it. This is a delightful performance of the work too. I love the attention given to the crusic quotation of the Landler, with a challenge of the rule during Allegro in two, and Adagio e Finale in three. Like son, like father.

@Frottussle This piece was mistakenly attributed to Haydn for years. It has been confirmed to be the work of Leopold Mozart. He was very enthusiastic about "naturalistic" music as he put it, hence the sounds one would not normally hear in music from his time period, but in nature. The same can be seen in his "Jagdinsinfonie", which is scored for hunting horns, shotguns, shouting, and barking dogs. He was a revolutionary composer for his time, but his work was overshadowed by his son, Wolfgang.

[Frottussle]

From what we have read about Leopold Mozart, it doesn't seem very probable he would compose a piece like this. We can, however, imagine Joseph Haydn writing it for the children of the Esterhazy family who was his longtime patron and employer.

My dad used to play this for me when I was a little kid. I loved it (and still). :)
